Follow up to yesterdays blog...

So yesterday I gave you the run down of a day in the life. Again today I had plans to be up at 4am but I must confess I slept through my alarm. You see I HAD to stay up and watch American Horror Story, and then woke up a million times during the night so I'm not surprised I didn't want to get up after only about 5 hours of sleep. BUT, where there's a will there's a way, right?? So as soon as Steve and the kids were out the door this morning I put on my sneakers, grabbed Chloe's leash and we went for a quick 30 min run. Better than nothing right? It was only 28 degrees, but that's what Under Armour is for!

neither of us look thrilled, but it was a good run!

In other news, someone passed along a link to a new fad diet to me today. Some bogus 13 day lose 10lbs crap. A crash diet that pretty much consists of not eating. It's not a diet, it's an eating disorder. I wasn't really sure how to take it, I mean is this person telling me I need to lose 10 lbs? Are they aware that I bust my ass in the gym and could never eat this little, nor do I ever want to...

Here's the "diet":
